Alan J.Gould
You see his name rarely In the
box scores any more, but Eddie Col
lins, kintr-pin of second baseman
when the Old Athletics were win
ning world's championships. Is. a
vital cog In the New A's. As staff
aide to General Connie Mace, uoi-
11ns takes over a good deal of the
detail work. Brought up from his
'college days In the Mack school of
thought, Eddie Is a keen strategist
himself, a quick-thinker with the
same Intuition that Ty Cobb pos
sessed for doing the right thing.
Now that Cobb has retired, Col
lins, In his twenty-second consecu
tive year In the majors, has the
longest continuous service, record of
any player still in uniform.
Recently I asked Collins the se
cret of Mack's ability to maintain
so keen a grasp of baseball's swift
moving affairs after so long a term
as manager and at an age when
most elderly gentlemen prefer ease
or golf to directing an exciting ball
game from a hard, hot bench.
"You know, It never ceases to
amaze me the real enthusiasm
that Mr. Mack retains," replied Ed
die. "Of course he has forgotten
more about the game than most of
us will ever know, yet he retains
the memory or everything essential,
The style of play has changed but
Mr. Mack has kept up with It. ,
have never seen anyone so consist
ently keen In sizing up situations
and plays, so able in handling
variety of players, many of them
temperamental it Is almost un
canny to me."
"The club this year Is working
Its head off for one man Connie
Mack. Of course we all like, to be
with a winner but to a man the A's
think more of - winning this pen
nant for Mr. Mack than they do for
any extra money or glory they may
get out ox it. '
' Like many veterans, Eddie Collins
regrets the way the free-hitting era
of baseball has ruined most of the
old "inside stuff."
"I don't say we were any smarter
tn the old days but the game of 15
to 20 years ago certainly put more
premium on fast-thinking and quick
action than nowadays," he remarked
"A big nock ol runs now can knock
the best-prepared piece of strategy
an over the field.
"I think the reason for a lot of
the hitting Is lack ef confidence
among many pitchers after they
have been battered up. You know,
pitching Is 60 per cent confidence.
any way, with around 30 per cent
for ability and 20 per cent for the

FOX IN "PINK"
FOR BOUT WITH
WILLIE GORDON

boxing five with Art Alters, the
southpaw exponent, and five with
Ru&s Green at the armory Tues
day afternoon, proved to tha spec
tators who lined the rail that Ted
Fox Is fully prepared fcr bis ten
round go with Sailor Willie Gordon
Thursday evening. It was a real
workout too, with trainers caution
ing the boys repeatedly to be care
ful. Fox and his opponents were
inclined to mt plenty of steam in
their punches and a knockdown
would not have surprised anybody.
Fox lsnt saying much about the
outcome of the battle. He has
trained hard, however, and Is pre
pared to give Uie sailor a real fight
His win over Benny Pels has given
him confidence and after a round
or two of "feeling out" his oppon
euts, fans may expect some furious
milling.
Gordon has had little difficulty in
petting into shape. His' return from
the islands found him phydcaily
lit as was natural alter a lay-off,
his marksmanship has been some
what off, but this Is rapidly Im
proving.
Alters is planning a tough go with
Charley O'Leary of Portland. When
told Tuesday that Alters was
good man, he laconically rejoined
that he "wain't good enough."
Two Bobs from Salem, heavy
weights, have been signed for one
of t four round events. Bob
Kelly, who has made several ap
pearances In the ring here, and
Bob Hagan, who makes his initial
showing Thursday evening,- have
been named to show their stuff. -
The remainder of the card re
mains In doubt, although Match
maker Plant promises two more in
teresting fights.
